2. Purpose of This Policy
Depending on applicable privacy laws, some users may have rights to object to certain processing of personal data or request that Playflick restrict certain processing.
This policy explains:
- What objection requests may involve
- What restriction requests may involve
- How direct marketing objections may work
- How profiling or recommendation-related objections may be handled
- When Playflick may continue processing despite an objection
- How users may submit a request
3. Objection Requests
An objection request asks Playflick to stop or limit certain processing of personal data where applicable law gives the user that right.
Objection requests may relate to:
- Direct marketing
- Certain profiling connected to marketing
- Certain processing based on legitimate interests
- Certain recommendation or personalisation activities where applicable
- Certain analytics or platform improvement uses where applicable
- Certain public interest or legal-basis processing where applicable
4. Restriction Requests
A restriction request asks Playflick to pause, limit, or restrict certain processing of personal data where applicable law gives the user that right.
Restriction requests may apply where:
- The user disputes the accuracy of personal data
- The user believes processing is unlawful but does not want deletion
- Playflick no longer needs the data, but the user needs it for legal claims
- The user has objected to processing and Playflick is reviewing the objection
- Applicable law requires or permits processing to be restricted
5. Direct Marketing Objections
Users may object to direct marketing communications where applicable law gives them that right.
Users may be able to opt out of marketing by:
- Using unsubscribe links in marketing emails
- Changing notification or email preferences
- Changing cookie or consent preferences where available
- Contacting Playflick support
Users who opt out of marketing may still receive essential account, security, billing, legal, safety, or service communications.
6. Advertising and Personalisation Objections
Users may have choices related to personalised advertising, ad measurement, cookies, tracking technologies, or similar personalisation features.
These choices may be available through:
- Cookie settings
- Consent preferences
- Account privacy settings
- Device or browser controls
- Advertising preference tools where available
- Privacy request channels
Some advertising, fraud prevention, security, analytics, or platform operation processing may continue where permitted or required by law.
7. Profiling and Recommendation Objections
Playflick may use account activity, watch activity, search activity, interactions, preferences, content metadata, device information, and other signals to provide recommendations, rankings, search results, safety systems, fraud prevention, and platform personalisation where permitted.
Users may have rights or controls related to certain profiling or personalisation depending on applicable law and available settings.
Playflick may still process certain data for service operation, security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, child safety, moderation, and platform integrity.
8. Processing That May Continue
Playflick may continue certain processing even after an objection or restriction request where permitted or required by law.
Continued processing may be needed for:
- Account security
- Fraud prevention
- Payment processing
- Tax and accounting obligations
- Legal compliance
- Safety and child protection
- Moderation and platform integrity

9. Limits of Restriction
Restricting processing may affect how certain Playflick features work.
Depending on the data and request, restriction may affect:
- Personalised recommendations
- Notifications
- Advertising preferences
- Account support
- Creator tools
- Business tools
- Payment or billing processes
- Security and fraud review
- Legal or safety responses
Some features may not work properly if required data cannot be processed.
10. Accuracy Disputes and Temporary Restriction
If a user disputes the accuracy of personal data, Playflick may review the disputed information and may restrict certain processing where required.
Playflick may request supporting information to understand the dispute and determine whether correction, restriction, retention, or refusal is appropriate.
More information is available in our Privacy Correction & Account Information Update Policy.
11. Requests Connected to Deleted or Suspended Accounts
Objection or restriction requests involving deleted, suspended, terminated, restricted, or legally held accounts may be limited.
Playflick may continue retaining or processing certain records for legal compliance, safety, fraud prevention, tax, accounting, payment disputes, moderation, account security, rights disputes, or platform integrity.
12. Identity Verification
Playflick may require identity verification before acting on an objection or restriction request.
Verification may be required to protect:
- Personal data
- Account security
- Private communications
- Billing records
- Creator or business records
- Children’s information
- Other users’ privacy
Playflick may refuse or delay a request if identity or authority cannot be verified.
13. Authorised Agents and Representatives
Where permitted by law, users may appoint an authorised agent or representative to submit an objection or restriction request.
Playflick may require proof that the agent is authorised to act for the user.
For business, organisation, studio, agency, or team-managed accounts, Playflick may require evidence that the requester has authority to submit the request on behalf of the organisation.
14. Children and Guardian Requests
Requests involving children or young users may require additional verification and safety review.
Playflick may need to confirm:
- The identity of the requester
- The relationship between the requester and the child
- Whether parent or guardian authority is valid
- Whether restriction protects the child’s privacy and safety
- Whether disclosure, restriction, or continued processing is required by law
Playflick may refuse, delay, or limit requests where child safety or privacy concerns exist.
15. Timeframes
Playflick aims to respond to valid objection and restriction requests within timeframes required by applicable law.
Response times may depend on:
- Identity verification
- Request complexity
- Type of data involved
- Legal requirements
- Security or fraud review
- Whether clarification is needed
- Whether third-party providers are involved
Playflick may extend response times where permitted by law.
16. When Requests May Be Refused or Limited

Reasons may include:
- Identity cannot be verified
- The requester lacks authority
- The request is unclear
- The request is excessive, repetitive, or abusive
- Playflick has overriding legitimate grounds where recognised by law
- Processing is needed for legal claims
- Processing is needed for legal compliance
